Where Are My Shepherds?

 

Where, Oh where have My shepherds gone: those who were called to oversee My flocks? For the paddock gates have been left open and My sheep are running astray. Who, then, shall safeguard the lives of My newly born lambs, lest they be snatched away when the devourer comes? Though they provide food for the troughs, My shepherds have been neglectful, as they spend little time actually tending the sheep, leaving My herds to mostly fend for themselves.

 

So then, from their hands shall I remove their staffs, and lift the mantle of authority from upon their shoulders. I have measured the weight of their transgressions and found them severely wanting, and therefore, they are no longer fit to keep My sheep. How swiftly then, shall My hand move amongst these herdsmen, putting an abrupt end to the oversight of many, for they no longer have My confidence, and so shall be relieved from duty.

 

Yet out from the midst of My flocks shall new overseers emerge, like David of old, who killed a lion and a bear while tending his father\’s flocks. So, too, shall these shepherds then contend for My sheep, for so fierce is their love for the people of God. These overseers are of a different breed, for they shall not lead from out in front, but within the midst of My flocks, as it is only the Father’s interests that these shepherds serve. To live a life worthy of the title, ” son” or  “daughter”, is to them, in itself, a great reward.

 

So rise up you ‘shepherdesses of Zion’, and claim your staffs, you ‘overseers of the King’, for My sheep have need of your kindness! And so absent ordination and title you are charged and commissioned to lead because I have called you “qualified”. Desire not the limelight, nor seek a platform, for I tell you now that I am done with this practice, as this is not the intended role of an overseer. Ah, but see I am doing a new thing amongst My children, for in this season I have come to revive the ancient form and function of the early Church, where ‘humble and holy’ were My households.

 

Then again I say, “Rise up you overseers who hail from Aslan’s country! Listen, your Master is calling. For very soon His pasturelands shall be overflowing with new lambs, which shall require your compassionate care and loving instruction. So, no longer sit, but stand. Take up your staff, and, even now, shepherd My sheep!

 

“Tend the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not of constraint, but willingly, according to the will of God; nor yet for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind…” 1 Peter 5:2

Israel: Ruination Is Indeed Your Lot!

Hear Me, Israel: “…there shall be no avoiding the coming retribution, as surely have you acted out of turn, and took into your hands that which did not belong to you. Then do not think, Israel, that you are off the hook. For surely before Me do you stand guilty as charged, and so shall I repay you, Israel, the due penalty you are owed for the atrocities you are even now committing! “Woe, then do I say to you, Israel, woe. For ruination is indeed your lot!’

Let The Stargazers Appear

Even still shall those stargazers come forth, as they will lead My children back to those ancient paths which have long been forgotten. And so is a renaissance coming; yet is it already here. However, “unexpected” shall this renewal be, for most would not even think that I would point My children back to gazing at the stars. Yet is that precisely My aim, for there is much to uncover down that ancient route. And so do I say now, “Let the stargazers appear!”

More Disruptions Are Coming!

Indeed then, have I come in this hour to disrupt the systems and structures of the Church. Thus am I now speaking, “Disrupt, disrupt, disrupt! For I am not content to leave things as they are and, as such, the status quo must now be disrupted. For far too long has the Church been sitting back and simply resting upon her laurels.” Then let the Church now be forewarned, for more disruptions are coming!
